Absolutely nothing
Listed as having air con but only had 2 small fans that blew hot air around the windowless room. Was so hot it actually made me feel ill.
Bedsheets we’re dirty and had stains on them.
Showers didn’t work and let out a tiny trickle of water which made washing yourself impossible.
No communal space or food facilities yet they didn’t want you to eat in your room.
The maps they provided to find the place were wrong and it took us 45 minutes to find the place.
Staff were really rude

The bedding was dirty, walls were paper thin so could hear every alarm & conversation, aircon went off in the middle of the night so it got super hot (don’t know if it broke or this was intentional), no one around on reception during the day & the location of the hostel was a fair distance from where the location stated on maps. We could have spent a few £’s more & stayed somewhere better

The bed was comfortable
The place wasn't located exactly in the given spot. The receptionist took us half a km away from the reception to another location. There was no proper bathroom and it was common for all rooms.

Mostly WiFi and air-conditioning even just in night they're light on. Thanks for the service.
They didn't prepared slipper to go to toilet. And toilets were mix genders. so, I don't like that. I highly recommended they to divide the toilet to man and woman. Thank you.

Everything about this hostel is OK. WiFi was good, facilities were good. Location is pretty central with malls on either side. Also its on the 1st floor... if your facing McDonald's, it's on the outside of the complex to the right.
Main problem was the fact there was no one there when we arrived. It was early evening & the contact numbers on the door had no answer for about 45mins. (the WiFi password is on the door so it must be a pretty common problem)
Maybe speak with the owner if you not arriving early & give him idea of what time you'll arrive.
4.0 / 10.0
The place is close to the waterfront and to many restaurants. The shower is good.
We choose the place because of the shared kitchen. This "kitchen" is just a dirty water dispenser and nothing else.
Inside the room there was a red light and it was impossible to turn it off. That was annoying during the night. The Aircon is only working from 7pm to 7am.
